Grilled Coconut Shrimp with Pineapple Salsa

Nice Tropical flavorful twist on grilled shrimp. Not too difficult to prepare and very tasty. Marinate overnight for best flavor (That is the reason the recipe says 8 hours prep time, meaning overnight)

Spicy Pineapple Fritters

These are savory fritters filled with pineapples, habanaro, chives, garlic, turmeric and are very addictive. Serve as an appetizer, top some grilled meats, seafood or a side to a salad. Diced red pepper mix along the pineapple would be very good in this as well.

Grilled Ginger Salmon

I like to use a grill basket when I make this, so I don’t have to worry about losing pieces of the salmon. You can also do this in the broiler.

Trinidad Black Cake

The traditional Caribbean Christmas cake, aka euphoria! This heavy-duty rum fruit cake takes some time to make: with the minimum soaking time the recipe extends over two days, but I always take a month! However, it’s of course not active working time 😉 and the cake is not difficult to make at all, so don’t let the length of the instructions scare you! The most tedious part is chopping the fruit – try to resist to urge to use a food processor, as chopping by hand will give you the best results. Have a glass of wine, listen to your favourite music and make a night of it! If, however, you do give in to temptation, be very careful not to process the fruit into a sticky mass: you want finely chopped, not jam! Serve this wonderful cake in thin slivers with a dollop of whipped cream.
